The Pokemon Company and TiMi Studio Group released Pokemon Unite last year, and the MOBA has reached a considerable player base through multiple updates over the months. The Pokemon Unite first anniversary plans have been revealed, and the big update will include numerous changes to the game.

Pokemon Unite has confirmed several new things coming to the game with the one-year anniversary update, including six Pokemon, a game mode, events, and Pikachu Holowear. The previous seasons of Pokemon Unite offered battle pass progression through weekly and seasonal missions, but the year-one patch also includes its own challenges to complete for free rewards. A system called Pokemon Boost Emblems is among the additions to the MOBA, and they rank between gold and bronze, which may suggest that which one a player gets is based on gameplay.
